Screens flicker
In the night bright
Digital ghosts
Taking flight
Typing words
With hallow light
Connection gone
Out of sight
Faces masked with
Pixels and code
Emotions hidden
On this upload
Lost souls on a viral road
Truth replaced
By a viral mode
Virtual shadows
We've become
Lost in a digital slum
Empty echoes hum drum
Followers putting us numb
Profiles perfect
False ideas
Fake likes hiding
How we feel
Real life behind
The reels
Our true selves
Hard to reveal
End scrolls to feel the void
Artificial friends deployed
Memories
They are destroyed
Reality avoided
In the android
Break the mirror
Shatter the screen
Find the light
In this machine
Breathe the air
That's in-between
Not all is as it seems
Virtual shadows
We've become
Lost in a digital slum
Empty echoes hum drum
Followers putting us numb
Profiles perfect
False ideas
Fake likes hiding
How we feel
Real life behind
The reels
Our true selves
Hard to reveal
